а) \(\frac{21}{20}-\frac{3}{8}-\frac{1}{5}=\frac{42}{40}-\frac{15}{40}-\frac{8}{40}=\frac{19}{40}\).
б) \(\frac{13}{15}-\left(\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{6}\right)=\frac{13}{15}-\frac{1}{5}-\frac{1}{6}=\frac{26}{30}-\frac{6}{30}-\frac{5}{30}=\frac{15}{30}=\frac{1}{2}\).
Ответ: а) \(\frac{19}{40}\); б) \(\frac{1}{2}\).
